Behringer Studio Condenser Microphone C-1 Manual Do Utilizador

C-1 User Manual

Your condenser mic C-1 needs a phantom power supply (+36 to +52 V). If your C-1 is 
connected to a microphone preamp and supplied with phantom power, the LED on the 
microphone lights up. BEHRINGER assumes no liability for any damage caused by a 
defective phantom power supply. Always mute the sound reinforcement system before 
you switch on the phantom power supply.

Your C-1 features a capsule with a cardioid pickup pattern and is ideal for recording 
individual instruments, vocals and speech. Cardioid pickup pattern means that the sound 
produced by sources located in front of the mic is strongly picked up. It is often used 
in recording situations, since this directivity pattern tones down the pickup of sounds 
located to the back of the microphone.

There is an adapter on your microphone that lets you mount it on mic stands with 
either metric (Europe) or imperial-gauge threads (North America). First dismantle the 
microphone from the stand mount adapter by detaching the fine-thread shoulder screw 
at the bottom end of the microphone. Fasten the adapter onto the microphone stand, 
place the microphone into it and tighten the screw again.
Basically, the microphone in the stand mount adapter should stand upright and face the 
sound source at a right angle. The angle of the microphone to the sound source influences 
the sound of the recording; therefore, experiment with different positions until you 
achieve the desired sound. To this end, you can rotate the mic in the stand mount adapter 
by loosening the screw somewhat and tightening it again.
